Sperm plasma membrane characteristics and boar semen fertility

Much effort is being made to establish relationships between the molecular events that take place in spermatozoa under fertilizing conditions and actual sperm function during fertilization. During capacitation, the process that 'primes' spermatozoa for interaction with the egg, components of the sperm's environment, notably bicarbonate, provoke various specific changes in the architecture and functioning of the sperm plasma membrane in a large number of cells. The individ...

Functional genomic approaches for the study of fetal/placental development in swine with special emphasis on imprinted genes

Bischoff S.R. , Tsai S. , Hardison N. , Motsinger-Reift A.A. , Freking B.A. , Piedrahita J.A.

This chapter describes the application of functional genomic approaches to the study of imprinted genes in swine. While there are varied definitions of "functional genomics", in general they focus on the application of DNA microarrays, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays, and other high coverage genomic analyses, and their combination with downstream methods of gene modification such as silencing RNA (siRNA) and viral and non-viral transfection. Between the initi...
